The following letter-form was brought about as a means of teaching my children the Word of God through the mail. And of course, quite naturally so, that’s the reason I begin these letters with "Dear Children" and end them with "Love Dad". So for the rest of you who participate in these weekly messages, please keep their original intended purpose in mind.

13 May, 2012

Dear Children,

One (1) week from today – the 20th of May 2002 – will be my ten (10) year anniversary of having become “homeless for Jesus” as a direct result of meeting with Jimmy Swaggart during what would become the last of my many “journeys for Jesus” to Baton Rouge, Louisiana. In other words, as the Lord had directed, I spoke “the Truth” to Jimmy Swaggart about “the error” of his ways… and “the Devil” didn’t like it! So Jimmy Swaggart rejected what “thus saith the Lord”, and after a very long and painful trip back to El Paso, Texas, I found my “home” was no more.

But getting back to this thing about “the Truth” of “his error”, the purpose of that particular journey was to deliver our 5th sermonet of correction to Jimmy Swaggart – “Is Jimmy Swaggart’s Wife ‘Frances’ Really Uncovered?” In fact not only was it the 5th sermonet of correction for “Jimmy Swaggart”, but it was also written on the 5th day of the 5th month in 2002. Three (3) different occurrences of the “#5”… and the Good Lord did it for a reason!

You see the “#5” is symbolic of God’s “grace”. The five (5) Fingers on God’s right Hand will lift up in righteousness all those who are willing to take hold of it and walk in obedience to His Word. However, for all those who reject God’s “grace”, the same five (5) Fingers that would have been such a blessing will suddenly exercise the curse of His “wrath”. And seeing how the “#3” carries the meaning of “completeness”, it was Jimmy Swaggart’s rejection of our 5th Jimmy Swaggart sermonet that was written on the 5th day of the 5th month that likewise made his refusal of God’s “grace” complete.

So Jimmy Swaggart rejected God’s grace, and I became homeless until the 23rd of December 2011 when the Good Lord saw fit to not only give me my very own apartment but also everything I needed to work the ministry. Praise God!

And then it was a week or so later, as I was preparing for bed one morning, that I was able to watch a few minutes of Jimmy Swaggart’s “Classic Crusades” over the Internet. The crusade being aired was conducted in Anchorage, Alaska, and the date (6/23/84) was actually three (3) months after I had given my life to Jesus (3/16/84) through the Jimmy Swaggart Ministries’ telecast.

Now, I did not watch the entire program. However, the Lord instructed me to make note of the order number (CR1155) of that 6/23/84 “Classic Crusade” DVD for future reference. And, that I did.

Then weeks later the Lord directed me to an audio testimony of Jim Cymbala, pastor of The Brooklyn Tabernacle, which would become instrumental in the writing of our 4/4/12 expose’ “Jimmy Swaggart Ministries’ – Three Words That Curse God’s Name!” Because you see it was in his testimony that Jim Cymbala told of how God had used him and his wife Carol, along with David Wilkerson, to speak a Word of warning to Jimmy Swaggart. But yet Jimmy Swaggart refused to receive it, and the ugly consequence was the worldwide exposure of Jimmy Swaggart’s “sex sins” that very quickly made Jimmy Swaggart and his ministry a curse to God’s holy Name.

Well, what followed two (2) weeks later (4/18/12) was my purchase of a used copy of “Saints And Sinners” by Lawrence Wright, as instructed by the Father… which was followed two (2) days later (4/20/12) with the purchase of that Jimmy Swaggart “CR1155” Classic Crusade DVD (“The Real Child Abusers”) as instructed by the Father.

So with all that in mind, let’s continue on in today’s sermonet – “Jimmy Swaggart: The Real Child Abuser!” – with the following God-chosen Scripture:

“And Moses said unto them, If ye will do this thing, if ye will go armed before the LORD to war, And will go all of you armed over Jordan before the LORD, until he hath driven out his enemies from before him, And the land be subdued before the LORD: then afterward ye shall return, and be guiltless before the LORD, and before Israel; and this land shall be your possession before the LORD. But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the LORD: and be sure your sin will find you out.” (Numbers 32:20-23 KJV)

Now, what we have just read is an Old Testament picture of the New Testament Saint. It’s what’s better known as Old Testament “types and shadows”. Because you see the “Promised Land” of the Old Testament was truly a country where the people of God would live and be free from the attacks of their enemies whose only purpose was to steal, kill, and destroy.

However, as the Scripture pointed out, God’s promise of the “Promised Land” was totally “conditional” on their “obedience” to God’s Word. Because in order for them to receive this blessing from God, the people of God must first go into the “Promised Land” and destroy the enemy that made it their home. And, of course, if they weren’t willing to engage in this warfare as God had instructed (His Word), their sin of disobedience would eventually “find them out”. In other words, the enemy that God’s people didn’t destroy would be the very same enemy that would inevitably “take them out to lunch”… and they would be the main course in the meal!

So that was in the Old Testament… but we’re living in the New Testament… and the “Promised Land” of today is no longer “without” but “within”. In other words, the enemies we must fight, in order to live peacefully in God’s “Promised Land” forever, are found in the make-up of our very own “flesh and blood” bodies. And that’s what this word “overcometh” is really all about:

“He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:7-8 KJV)

You see the word “overcometh” means “to conquer”. And as the preceding Scripture has pointed out, the enemy we must conquer, in order to make Heaven our everlasting home, is our fearful, unbelieving, abominable, murdering, whoremongering, sorcering, idolatrous, lying “flesh”. In fact that’s why the Word in Heaven had to become Flesh on earth. Jesus had to take on a Body of “Flesh and Blood” so that He could become “the First to overcometh” in order to empower us to do the same:

“And ye know that he [Jesus] was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.” (1 John 3:5-9 KJV)

So in order to “conquer” the enemy of our “flesh”, we must “abide in Jesus” by “doing righteousness” at whatever the cost:

“Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.” (Philippians 3:8-11 KJV)

And now that we’ve said all that, we can go back to that 5th sermonet of correction to Jimmy Swaggart that was written on the 5th day of the 5th month – “Is Jimmy Swaggart’s Wife ‘Frances’ Really Uncovered?” – and uncover the “enemy” in Jimmy Swaggart’s “flesh” that did not get “conquered” because he refused to deal with his wife in “righteousness” as God had demanded.

“Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.” (2 Peter 3:3-4 KJV)

You see Jimmy Swaggart is one of the “scoffers” being talked about in the preceding Scripture. He claims to have “victory in Jesus” but yet he walks in total defeat to the enemies of his flesh. And of course that’s the reason we’ve had to write forty-five (45) Jimmy Swaggart sermonets to date. The 5th one should have been the last! In fact it was our 10th sermonet on Jimmy Swaggart – “Jimmy Swaggart REJECTS The Cross Of Christ!” – that gives the bottom line reason that both him and “his” ministry are in such an ungodly condition.

But anyway, with God’s promise in mind – “YOUR SINS WILL FIND YOU OUT” – let’s continue on with my story of how the Good Lord reveled to me one of Jimmy Swaggart’s most darkest sins.

Because you see it was on the 26th of April that I finished reading the chapter in “Saints And Sinners” that Lawrence Wright had dedicated to the “sinning Saint” Jimmy Swaggart. And this is the part that the Holy Spirit illuminated for me in glowing yellow highlighter:

“ …God had commissioned Jimmy Swaggart to blanket the globe with his message. The minister's power continued to multiply. He was on his way to becoming the most visible man in the world. Whether he was walking on the beach in Africa or through slums in the Philippines, he would be recognized. Rulers hailed him, as well as the drifting masses. Such power could only come from God's hand. But at the same time, Satan had gained control of Swaggart's soul. The seed of sexual perversion, which he said had sprouted at the age of ten, had now grown and matured and was terribly ripe. Compared with that of the men he had brought down, the men he had publicly excoriated as false prophets, Swaggart's behavior was even more obsessive and bizarre. So who was he really serving—God or Satan? Was he a false prophet as well? Or had his power grown so great that he was swelling into the mighty Prince of Darkness, of whom Jesus had warned, who would be received as the Messiah but would be revealed in the Great Tribulation as the Antichrist?
The Travel Inn is one of several deteriorated motels along Airline Highway that rent rooms by the hour. NO REFUNDS AFTER THE FIRST 15 MINUTES, reads a sign in the manager's office. Outside their narrow rooms, facing the muddy courtyard, women sit in molded fiberglass chairs waiting for customers. Many of them kill time by watching evangelists on television. Across Airline Highway, poking above the privacy fence, a large billboard proclaims, JESUS SAID UNLESS A MAN is BORN AGAIN HE CANNOT SEE THE KINGDOM OF GOD: JOHN 3:3. YOUR ETERNITY IS AT STAKE. Perhaps it is not surprising that Jimmy Swaggart would chose this spot to give himself up to his enemies. Here, in this highly charged battleground between God and Satan, he found a twenty-six-year-old mother of three with a crucifix tattooed on her right arm. Her name was Debra Murphree.
"Sometimes I would see him drive down the street every week, and he wouldn't stop unless he knew I was there," says Murphree. (Like Carriere, Murphree failed a lie-detector test, although she was identified in a photo taken with Swaggart. She believes the polygraph results were affected by her heavy drug use.) "He told me to get naked and maybe lay on the bed and pose for him. . . . To me, I think he's kind of perverted, or, you know, talking about some of the things that we talked about in the rooms, you know, I wouldn't want him around my children."”

So, Debra Murphree was a prostitute who served as a means of satisfying Jimmy Swaggart’s perverted sexual desires. But just how perverted were they? I mean, after all, Debra Murphree did say “I wouldn't want him around my children.”

Well, it only took a few more paragraphs of reading for me to get the answer to my question and realize more fully the reality of Jimmy Swaggart’s sexually perverted and demented mind:

“Several times he asked if she would let her nine-year-old daughter watch them, but she refused.”

Now did you get that? Several times during Jimmy Swaggart’s many trysts with Satan, as he ravenously tried to satisfy the unquenchable “whoremongering” desires of his flesh, he attempted to engage Debra Murphree’s nine (9) year old daughter in their sex act… but yet Debra Murphree refused.

Can you believe it??? Jimmy Swaggart, the number one (1) evangelist in the world, who ministered the saving power of Jesus Christ to the untold masses, was so “hungry” to satisfy his “sexually perverted lust” that he was willing to sacrifice the mind and soul of a nine (9) year old child in order to make it happen!

So, that was the “in the beginning” of this sermonet on “Jimmy Swaggart: The Real Child Abuser!” And it was only after having gained that insightful information from “Saints And Sinners” that the Lord took me back to the following portion of Jim and Carol Cymbala’s testimony that took place before Jimmy Swaggart’s encounter with Debra Murphree. In fact the Lord God Almighty was actually using them to try and stop it from ever taking place… but Jimmy Swaggart just wouldn’t listen:

“She [Carol] came home from this meeting. She flipped on the television, I was washing up in the bathroom, and I remember coming to the door of the bedroom. The TV was on, she was already in the bed, I had a towel over my shoulder, and the televangelist, the most famous of them all, was preaching a message. And I had been troubled, and so had Carol been over the last few months because his messages weren’t so much biblical anymore. Ah, they were just story telling, and he was getting a very harsh tone. Very harsh tone – making fun of other Christians.
You know when you’re filled with the Love of God you don’t make fun of other Christians.
But I wasn’t ready for what happened that night!
As I stood in the doorway, the televangelist was preaching and he brought up some example about someone who molested a child, and it must have been in the news. It was a crusade of his in an auditorium that seated about ten thousand people. And the televangelist said, “I’ll tell you what I would do with a guy who molested a child like that, I would line them up against a tree and open a shotgun into his chest!”
And when he said that, ten thousand people, as God is my witness, ten thousand people jumped to their feet and started applause.
And my wife and I had just been in the presence of God for hours.
My wife let out a scream. And she just said, “Turn it off!”
Tears come to my eyes. I was groaning.
I mean, I’ve been around church since a little kid even though I wasn’t always serving God. I backslid a lot, but I’ve been around enough. I’ve never seen a meeting where you’re cheering someone getting killed. That’s a long way from Calvary!”

Now with that in mind, are you starting to see a connection in all of this? I mean, Jesus Christ suffered and died on His cross so that even the vilest child molester might be set free from the satanic bondages of their sex-perverted sin. But yet Jimmy Swaggart, world evangelist of the gospel of Jesus Christ, confessed his desire to “blow the child molester away” into the everlasting torments of Hell! And the following is the Scriptural reason for him wanting to do it:

“Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things. And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?” (Romans 2:1-3 KJV)

You see Jimmy Swaggart took the position of “judge and jury” over the “child molester” when he refused to allow God to deal with his own “child molesting spirit”.

But that’s not all! Because after the Lord had given me more on Jimmy Swaggart’s “child molesting spirit” through “Jim and Carol Cymbala’s testimony”, He then had me to watch Jimmy Swaggart preach “The Real Child Abusers” sermon in my newly purchased Anchorage, Alaska, Classic Crusade video (#CR1155) from 6/23/84. And this is how Jimmy Swaggart started out that message:

“I had a preacher, a few months ago, one of the greatest men of God I ever knew, he’s with Jesus now, he died at 80-years young, he wrote me, maybe the last correspondence I had from him before he died, and he said, ‘Brother Swaggart, keep telling them that the terrible bondages and ravages of darkness can not be broken other than by the Blood of Jesus.’”

So that was Jimmy Swaggart’s introduction to his message on “The Real Child Abusers”. And even though there’s no doubting the fact that “the Blood of Jesus” is what gives us “the power to overcome” the “enemies of darkness” in our own lives, it was certainly not a reality in the life of the evangelist who was about to preach it. In other words, Jimmy Swaggart used the pastor’s comment as a smokescreen. God had given Jimmy Swaggart the sermon on “child abuse” as a means of dealing with his own sin of “child abuse”… but yet Jimmy Swaggart was about to take his message and aim it in another direction. Jimmy Swaggart would not accept God’s correction for himself.

In fact, with that in mind, the following quote from David Wilkerson certainly applied (and still applies) to Jimmy Swaggart:

“The man who has sin in his life, in the ministry, is a dangerous man… the most dangerous man on the face of the earth! Dangerous! Far more dangerous than a drug addict! Far more dangerous than any murderer that’s let loose or hatchet killer. He’s a dangerous man!”

You see the one thing that I truly admired about David Wilkerson was his transparency: he admitted when the message he was preaching was God’s rebuke for him. Most often he was preaching to himself… and he admitted it! But not so with Jimmy Swaggart… he was beyond reproof (and still is to this day)!

So, Jimmy Swaggart should have been “the child abuser” in his message, but yet he turned it all around and put the blame on a long list of offenders that he called “the real child abusers”: the abortionist, the public school system, the media, television, rock music, the movies, liquor, drugs, and parents that are raising their kids without God.

That’s the list! But not once did Jimmy Swaggart point the finger at “the evangelist”!

However, God is not a liar… and just as He promised, Jimmy Swaggart’s sin found him out!

Because as I continued to watch the video it became abundantly obvious that Jimmy Swaggart was preaching through the power of his “uncircumcised flesh” – the enemy of his soul – and not through the Power of the Holy Spirit. And then came that moment in time when the Devil in Jimmy Swaggart shamelessly broke through Jimmy Swaggart’s religious smokescreen for the whole wide world to see.

You see the way it all came down was that Jimmy Swaggart had just introduced Dr. Anchel in his message (a retired psychiatrist on pornography and sex education in schools), when he said the following:

“He said, ‘I would rather have a child crippled by polio, than crippled by early involvement in sex… Pornography affects children like a child molester…’”

Now that’s a powerful statement! Dr. Anchel’s quotes made it undeniably clear that the long-term affects of exposing children to pornography would be catastrophic. In fact Jimmy Swaggart would later quote the doctor as saying that the possibility of reversing the damage done to children exposed to pornography would be “nearly as impossible as providing growth for a dwarf.”

So the topic in discussion was all about Satan’s ability to take control the children’s minds when Jimmy Swaggart spoke the following words as he “showed his hand”:

“He said, ‘It affects children like a child molester. Pornographic shows and movies’, he said, ‘disturb rather than enhance normal sex growth, family life, and morality.’ He said, ‘When life instincts are perverted the death instincts take over. The first step toward self destruction is an unnatural sex adjustment such as that brought on by pornography or sex education’, and I add, given through television coming into our homes.”

You see what took place in this “Classic Crusades” video at 1 hour 27 minutes and 51 seconds (01:27:51) was Satan showing his control over Jimmy Swaggart when it comes to “perverting the minds of children through live pornography”. As Jimmy Swaggart was preaching against it, the Devil in him let the truth be known. The “child abusing spirit” in Jimmy Swaggart showed it’s true allegiance to Satan by having him show the sign of the “Devil’s horns”.

This Devil that was in Jimmy Swaggart back in 1984 is the same Devil that showed it’s ugly face in 1987 with Debra Murphree… and it was in control:

“Several times he asked if she would let her nine-year-old daughter watch them, but she refused.”

Jimmy Swaggart had a problem, and he knew he had a problem, but he refused to let God take care of the problem. In fact it was his personal experience with the problem that made his preaching against pornography so powerful. Because you see it was due to his preaching against the sales of teen, rock, and especially men's magazines on newsstands, that major outlets such as 7-Eleven stores actually removed the magazines from their shelves. As an example of the impact he was making, “Penthouse” (the men’s magazine) was losing $1.6 million a month in lowered sales alone. We’re talking BIG money!

In fact the following is just a sample of what Jimmy Swaggart had to say about pornography in the July 1986 issue of the “Baton Rouge Sunday Advocate”:

“Pornography is now considered as addictive as drugs, leading, as with any addiction, to a need for escalated ‘doses’ and intensity. That, in turn, breeds desensitizing, which leads to acting out of roles that have been at the heart of the nation’s most sensational serial murder and serial rape cases.”

Now, when it came to the “addictive power of pornography”, Jimmy Swaggart knew what he was talking about. He could preach it… but he just couldn’t live what he preached… and then he got caught with his pants down!

So the question remains, just how far did Jimmy Swaggart go with his own addiction? How far did his pornographic “drug habit” take him into “child abuse”?

In fact, with that question in mind, the Lord wants me to introduce a portion of the testimony of a mother whose two children were sexually abused by her “Satanist” husband. Linda Wiggin personally experienced what has now been termed “Satanic Ritual Abuse” (SRA). And to put it all into proper perspective, she shared the following real life story to emphasize the extremes that some will go to in order to satisfy their “child abuse habit”:

“I heard a story about a little 8-year old boy, and his mom had taken him to protect him, and they were found, (and I had been underground for three years by the way). The mother and this little boy were found. The little boy was taken to a basement, he was crucified alive – first he was skinned. When they torture the children it causes a physical reaction of the endomorphins in your body to just increase because of the terror and the pain. So when the Satanist drink the blood they actually get like a chemical, a high, like a drug high from the blood of a tortured victim. And this little boy was found in the basement dead, with no blood, skinned alive and crucified.”

“Endomorphin” (or endorphin) is one and the same “drug” that Jimmy Swaggart was “enjoying” every time he did what he did with “Debra Murphree” and “the rest”. It is a natural “drug” produced by the body, and the following is just a sample of what “Wiki” has to say about it:

Endorphins ("endogenous morphine") are endogenous opioid peptides that function as neurotransmitters. They are produced by the pituitary gland and the hypothalamus in vertebrates during exercise, excitement, pain, consumption of spicy food, love and orgasm, and they resemble the opiates in their abilities to produce analgesia and a feeling of well-being.
The term implies a pharmacological activity (analogous to the activity of the corticosteroid category of biochemicals) as opposed to a specific chemical formulation. It consists of two parts: endo- and -orphin; these are short forms of the words endogenous and morphine, intended to mean "a morphine-like substance originating from within the body."

So did you grab a hold of that? This drug that the body produces – endorphin – is comparitive to the drug “morphine”. And in the world of clinical medicine, “morphine” is regarded as the gold standard, or benchmark, of opioid analgesics used to relieve severe or agonizing pain and suffering. In other words, Jimmy Swaggart knew what he was talking about:

“Pornography is now considered as addictive as drugs, leading, as with any addiction, to a need for escalated ‘doses’ and intensity. That, in turn, breeds desensitizing, which leads to acting out of roles that have been at the heart of the nation’s most sensational serial murder and serial rape cases.”

And getting back to the issue at hand, the above Swaggart family portrait was taken somewhere around the time that Jimmy Swaggart was doing what he did with Debra Murphree. Do you notice anything strange or foreboding about this picture?

So there you have it: “Jimmy Swaggart: The Real Child Abuser!” But we’re not through just yet. I mean in order to put all of this into a proper perspective, the Lord wants us to include the following quote from Aleister Crowley’s book “The Law Is For All”:

“Moreover, the Beast 666 adviseth that all children shall be accustomed from infancy to witness every type of sexual act, as also the process of birth, lest falsehood fog, and mystery stupefy, their minds, whose error else might thwart and misdirect the growth of their subconscious system of soul-symbolism.”

Talk about “the real child abuser”! Aleister Crowley was a man truly dedicated to that purpose… and he wasn’t even ashamed of it! He thought of himself as “the Beast 666”, and likewise sought to achieve the death of Christianity and free men from all restrictions. In fact, this is what Crowley had to say about it:

“I say today: to hell with Christianity, Rationalism, Buddhism, and all the lumber of the centuries. I bring you a positive and primal fact, Magick by name: and with this I will build me a new Heaven and a new Earth. I want none of your faint approval or faint dispraise. I want blasphemy, murder, rape, revolution, anything, bad or good, but strong.”

Aleister Crowley was nothing but the Devil… and he was adamant about exposing children to pornography at a very early age!

So why did the Good Lord have me write this sermonet on “Reverend” Swaggart?

I think the answer is obvious: Jimmy Swaggart is not an “overcomer” in Christ… the satanic enemy of his “flesh” is still in control! Jimmy Swaggart is very much so the real “child abuser” that Aleister Crowley promoted!

What an atrocity! Jimmy Swaggart was not willing to forsake it all for Jesus – his wife, his ministry, his family, nor his wealth – and the enemy “took him out to lunch”!

So the question remains: Is it too late for Jimmy Swaggart to “overcometh” the “child abusing spirit” in his life?

In closing, please don’t be like Jimmy Swaggart! Count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus, and “keep on keeping the faith in Jesus!!!”

Love,

Dad (Bruce Hallman)

Note:It was on the 18th of April, forty-five (45) days after the publication of our expose’ “Richard Wurmbrand, Voice Of The Martyrs, And The Antichrist”, that the director of Voice Of The Martyrs, Tom White, committed suicide after allegations were made to authorities the previous day concerning his inappropriate contact with a ten (10) year old girl.
